| 10 days weather forecast for Delhi | ||
Delhi combines the heat of Rajasthani deserts with the cold climate of the Himalayas. From April to October, the temperature often rises above + 40 ° C, monsoon rains flood the city in July and August.
In winter (especially in December and January), the temperature may drop to zero. The city at this time covers a thick fog, due to which many flights are canceled. In February-April and September-November the climate is pleasant enough, the temperature keeps at around +20 ... 30 ° C.
Transport
Metro
Metro is one of the most convenient, fastest and cheapest ways to travel around Delhi. The city has already built six branches, so that it can deliver you almost anywhere. A trip by subway can cost between Rs 8 and Rs 30 - depending on where and from where you are heading. When buying a ticket, keep in mind that it is valid only for the station where you sit in the subway - if you buy two at once, you can not go back to the second one.
Buses
You can reach any part of the city by bus. Tickets for them cost even less than on the metro - 5-15 rupees, however, and it's usually less convenient to travel to them - during peak hours around the city, terrible traffic jams, and huge numbers of people crowd into every bus.
At bus stops there are no schedules or even tablets with the numbers of buses arriving there, so that any information you can get only from the surrounding people. But at least the lack of schedules is not so much a problem, rarely when the right bus has to wait longer than 15-20 minutes.
Delhi Cuisine
Maybe in Delhi and stuffy, too crowded, and local roads do not scare only suicides - you will forget about all these shortcomings as soon as you go to a restaurant. In the whole country (and all over the world too) there is no more city where you could find such a good Indian cuisine. However, not only restaurants in Delhi are good - the whole city is full of many tents and counters, where you will be offered absolutely terrific dishes right on the street.
In Delhi, there are even special groups of gourmets, consisting of both locals and tourists, who regularly hike in various restaurants to ensure an excellent dinner or to find something new for themselves.
Chaath is one of the dishes that you should definitely try in Delhi. This is one of the snacks that are sold most often in trays right on the street. She represents herself such pies made of puff pastry, stuffed with potatoes or lentils and cooked deep-fried. From above they are watered with yoghurt, chutney and a special mixture of seasonings. It is best to buy a tea in the city center, next to the Bengali market. There are many small restaurants specializing in this dish - and the best of them is considered to be an institution called Nathu.
